"My son goes to the Queens Road Childcare Center which we love it so much. Outdoor space is fantastic with grapes in summer and Yaya is my son's favorite person. FYI Queens Road Childcare Center recently received the customer choice award for the 2022 best Childcare Center in North Vancouver!"

"Our daughter has been at this daycare full time for 14 months now, and the care is exceptional. This is a small, intimate daycare setting where the children get individualized care and attention. Our daughter instantly became comfortable with Yasmin, and she looks forward to going there every morning. Due to Yasmin's care and attention, our daughter has learned proper manners, and to be kind and respectful to others. We are so impressed with the variety of activities the children participate in, and the structure to their day. We continue to highly recommend this daycare to any parent."

"Our son attended Queens Road Childcare Center full time for a year and a half and we couldn’t have been happier with the care he received daily. He started daycare at the age of 1 in a larger organization, and we quickly realized that the level of care he was getting wasn’t to our standards — despite the perception that we were paying for the best. We were lucky enough to meet Yasmin and switch care providers, and it was the best decision we ever made. Yasmin is an excellent caregiver: loving and attentive, yet firm. We were also impressed with her learning schedule for the children and that she demonstrates genuine care for the children. We have and will continue to recommend Yasmin’s daycare for anyone looking for a loving, safe daycare environment."

"We are so incredibly happy with our time at Queens Road Childcare. As a first-time mom, I was very worried about starting my son in daycare and going back to work. Queens Road Childcare was recommended to us, and we were lucky enough to get a spot. Our son has now been there since June 2019 and he has loved every single day. Yasmin and her staff provide an amazingly warm and nurturing environment. Our son is always bringing wonderful art projects home and sharing new songs he learned that day. He is becoming a very bright and kind boy, and Yasmin has played a huge role in that.
We HIGHLY recommend Yasmin and her program and will be very sad to leave when the time comes."

"My daughter attended Queens Road Daycare from September 2017-February 2019. The staff, primarily Yasmin and Minha, extend such a safe, warm and inviting atmosphere, that my daughter almost immediately felt at home here, after her first day. We very quickly came to think of these ladies as a part of our family, and they immediately put my mind at ease, as an anxious mother returning to work after my maternity leave ended. We were met each morning, with a friendly face and useful transition tactics for my daughter, and at pick up I was always greeted with a flood of laughter and smiling, busy children at play, which proved that the kids were happy, engaged and well taken care of! Face-to-face, honest daily reports were provided, and my input was always appreciated and taken seriously. I felt that staff worked alongside me as a team to provide the best individualized care possible for my daughter.
The staff here foster creativity through playing music, singing songs, dancing (the children were often in tutus :)), painting and other creative art activities. My daughter often came home with stories about what they made that day, and she was always so proud of the work she created! She developed a very keen love of song and could be heard daily after daycare, performing the new song of the day for my husband and I!
Students are taught basic counting and alphabet knowledge through a variety of creative and multi-sensory activities, and staff provide various differentiated centres for children of different developmental stages. There is ample of space, both inside and out, for children to run and play, and they are given lots of outdoor time each day.
Yasmin and Minha foster a love of learning through numerous fun activities, but they also help to install manners in children and hold them to high, but fair behavioural expectations. My daughter learned so much while she was at Queens Road, and I strongly believe that the staff helped her become the bubbly, polite, imaginative and playful individual she is today. We owe them a lot, and would recommend this centre to anyone!"

"Our 2 1/2 year old son is currently at Queens Road Child Care. We started here when we moved to North Vancouver and despite all the life changes, his daycare transition was the easiest. He was immediately comfortable and happy. And that made for happy parents! Yasmin (Yaya or Yazzy as the kids lovingly call her) and Minha are both very kind, patient and gentle. I know the kids are safe and cared for. I get updated on anything important on a regular basis and I feel completely at ease asking any questions myself. They even make my older daughter feel important when she drops off/picks up her little brother with us.
This daycare is for a small group and I happen to prefer this setting when the kids are young. It feels more like a second home especially when you have the right care provider. The facility itself is clean and well maintained. The kids go outside every day and have adequate indoor and outdoor space to play. The age appropriate weekly/monthly themes are interesting and the art is creative.
We would recommend this daycare to anyone as we are very pleased with the level of care."

"My 2 year old daughter Frankie has been with Yasmin or 'Yaya' as we all lovingly call her, for over a year now. My only regret is that we have to leave when Frankie turns 3, as her program is only up to 3 years old. Yasmin and her staff, especially Minha, have been so gentle, kind and fun with Frankie (and all the kids, you can tell whenever you drop off and pickup). They are all happy and comfortable there.
There is always an adjustment period in a transition like going to a new daycare for a baby or toddler, and Yaya makes it as seamless as possible. She has a very positive energy which rubs off on the kids. They are so helpful and collaborative with the kids and parents, for example, helping our daughter along with potty training, but also listening and working together with the parents to help with the transitions, big and small. There is as much communication as you need, no rush out the door at pickup (even at 5:30) and no guessing how the day went.
My daughter is always telling us about her day and singing songs from daycare at home. There are themes every week, a ton of art and crafts being done, outdoor play almost every day, and a well kept, clean and varied environment inside. The kids all learn to respect and play so well with each other no matter their age. They are having lots of fun there, and make great friends with each other.
I can only hope to find someone as great for our next daycare!
I highly recommend Yaya and her team!"

"I had a real good feeling bringing my son to Queen Rd Childcare Centre right from the start as I noticed the children were happy and at ease. Yasmin and her staff have a gift in making children feel safe and respected. My son has been here for almost 10 months and I love how he has grown to be kind, and I have Yasmin to thank in being part of that since he's is an active (almost) 2 yr old boy.
It's like dropping him off with family, I know he is genuinely loved and well taken care of."

"My daughter has been attending Queens Road Childcare Center for 1 year and 4 months and I couldn’t be happier with this daycare. Yasmin has accommodated my daughter for part time care on the days I need. She along with her staff provide a caring and loving environment for the children. I have seen my daughter learn so much from being at Queens Road Childcare Center. They send out a monthly schedule of what the children will learn, in addition to this they have a music and French teacher come in once a week. My daughter is always talking about what she learned and bringing home crafts that coincide with the lessons. My daughter is always clean when she comes home- she has been changed into clean clothes if she gets dirty. Her face and body is always clean when we pick her up - not even a pen mark on her from their daily crafts. They even take time to do her hair. It’s been so wonderful to know my daughter is safe and well cared for when I cannot be with her."

"My son has been attending Queen's Road Childcare Centre with Yasmin for the past 2 months twice a week. He was only 10 months when he started and I believe the youngest of the bunch. I am very happy with the care he is receiving at the daycare. He adjusted right away and always has a big smile on his face when he sees Yasmin or her assistant. I like the fact that the daycare space is small and intimate and there are lots of age appropriate toys for the children to play with. I feel confident that my son and the other children are in good hands with Yasmin!"

"My daughter has been attending this daycare for almost 2 years and I am so pleased with the care she is receiving. Yasmin and her staff are so friendly, welcoming and experienced and I always feel comfortable leaving my daughter there knowing she will be safe and well nurtured. The moment I knew it was a good fit was when I visited and my daughter (11 months at the time) snuggled into her shoulder when Yasmin held her. I believe it is Yasmin's gentle demeanour that caused my daughter to immediately fee comfortable. The space is clean, safe and cozy and has a nice gated yard to play in. All the kids seem happy to be there with lots of interaction and developmental stimulation. A music teacher comes on Tuesdays which my daughter loves and comes home singing songs all week! They have art and French (on Fridays) and lots of out door play. I also like the occasional field trips like to the library. If you are looking for a daycare, I highly recommend talking to Yasmin to set up a visit!"

"Yasmin runs an excellent daycare. Here are a few highlights:
1) a music teacher comes in weekly to play guitar and sing with the children. My child LOVES this and talks about it all week.
2) weekly lessons with a French teacher. I was gob-smacked when my two year old referred to a butterfly as a"papillon".
3) Library trips - my child loves the adventure of going to the library with his friends.
Yasmin is friendly, kind and has a great manner with the children. She also is focused on teaching them new skills and develops a curriculum that she sends out to the parents monthly (could be space, or insects, etc and then all the learning and art projects focus on that theme).
We are really happy we were able to get our child a spot in this daycare."

"When looking for daycare for my son, I visited a number of centres. My son warmed to Yasmin immediately, which made a big impression on me. Yasmin truly cares for and is dedicated to the children in her care, and this is evident in my son's fondness of her. She is nurturing, professional and knowledgeable, as is the staff that she hires. She is always accommodating and supportive of my son's changing needs. My son, now three, always talks about his day with enthusiasm. With another baby on the way, I feel fortunate that we have found such a wonderful childcare centre for our children."

"I had both my children aged 15mths and 3yrs in this daycare for a short few months while I worked part time. I had a great feeling about this daycare from the moment I viewed it and Id viewed a lot of other in homes. Yasmin really is such a caring, dedicated and loving person to the children and her daycare is clean and well maintained. My kids were so happy for the few months they were here. I would have stayed but sadly when I had to move back to working 4days a week, Yasmin didn't have an opening to accommodate my 4th day so we left with a heavy heart. Great job by Yasmin and her team...truly!"

Yasmin’s daycare program offers the perfect balance of the warm, cozy and nurturing environment I want for my young child, combined with the physical, creative and educational stimulation that he needs as he grows older. My son speaks fondly of the children and staff at the centre and I am constantly surprised by the new things he has learned there."

Yasmine had an extensive background in childcare education which she puts to good use and we are very comfortable dropping our son off each and every day. As new parents we often look to Yasmine for trusted advise and she continues to deliver."

"My daughter attends Queens Road Childcare 4 days a week and I am extremely happy with the care and attention that she receives there.
Yasmin takes the time to listen to my ideas and suggetions for how to care for my daughter and has taken the time to create a schedule for my daughter's individual needs, as well as for all of the other children in her care.
Yasmin clearly cares for and truly likes all of the children in her care and it is apparant that she is doing what she loves to do.
I am always very happy with the level of cleanliness at the daycare and I love the fact that Yasmin is so careful to keep things as clean as possible.
While I am always sad to leave her at daycare, I always leave knowing that she will be well cared for and that she is safe and secure feeling with Yasmin."
